00:00The Zoological Park of 26 is a place that in other times was a symbol of family entertainment in Havana.

00:10Today, abandonment and negligence have turned this space into one more example of the crisis that Cuba is experiencing.

00:19The zoo, inaugurated in 1939, had good and bad times, such as when in 1944 a cyclone destroyed its facilities.

00:30In the 1960s, an expansion was made that included new exhibitions, a clinic for animals and artificial lakes.

00:39However, over the years, the deterioration has been evident.

00:44Empty parks, rusted cages and roads in poor condition are now the reality of the zoo.

00:55Animals suffer the consequences of abandonment and insufficient food.

01:01Activists and citizens have denounced these conditions on numerous occasions.

01:14In the midst of the crisis that Cuba is experiencing, what can we expect from the authorities when not even human beings have basic food?

01:30How much longer can these animals survive in such precarious conditions?
